Allied Machine and Engineering Offers New Sizes of Thread Milling Tools
The AccuThread T3 thread mill line is now available in larger UN and ISO sizes up to 1"-8" and M24 × 3.0.
Allied Machine and Engineering, a leading manufacturer of holemaking and finishing cutting tools for the metal-cutting industry, announces the addition of new sizes to the AccuThread T3 thread mill line. The AccuThread T3 is now available in larger UN and ISO sizes up to 1"-8" and M24 × 3.0. Machine coding for the new sizes is included in Insta-Code, Allied Machine’s online thread-mill program generator.
Targeting high-production facilities, tool and die industries and high-temperature applications, the additional AccuThread T3 thread mill sizes are said to create a high-quality thread without the concern of breaking a tool in an expensive workpiece. It is designed to only machine three threads at a time, which reduces tool pressure and increases the chances of tool survival.
